London,
Febrvary
Ilth.—The
drink
quesiion
was
bricfly
discusszd
in
both
Eouses
of Farliament
yeserday.
Lord
Corzen
told
the
Eouse
of Lords
thata
bill on
this subject
would
be
introduced,
which would coniain
provisions
for short-
er hours
of sale,
and
that
the experiment
of state
managerrent
would,
certain'y,
not be dropped.
In
the House
of
Com-
mons,
the subject
was
alluded
to
by Sir
Donald
Macl ean,
who said
that the tact
that
America
had
gone
dry
was
an
economic
~vent of the gravest importance
to Great
Britain.
He
declared
that the
British expenditure
for drink,
absoluteiy
stageered
him.
The country spent
more
than
1,164,000,000
pounds
for drink in
1914, and this
expenditure
had
increased
steadily untii it
was 1,250,000,000
in 1918
while
it
was
estimated
that
the
ex-
venditure
for
the
year
ending
Ma:ch
thirty-first next
wculd
be
nearly
1,40,
000,000.
He
was,
he
added,
unaw..re
what
the duty
on
the
consumpticn
lor
the last
named
period
would
produce
ior
the public
revenue,
but the
duty of 1018
was
148,000,600
pounds.
It
wasa
fcrm
of revenue
thatfall Chancellors
of the !ix-
chequer
would
be
pleased
to
be
able
to
dispense
with,
and
he
hoped
that
the
measure
proposed
by
the
Goveinmont
would
prove
to
be
a
serious
' tiemp:
to
grapple
with the
evil.
‘the
liqam
